>Jeff,
> Your project sounds a lot like mine. The boss went with a Dell server (yuck!) instead of a Compaq (never had a problem with them) like I had suggested, but at least he ponied up for the big mem and disk. When the hardware and db are in place, then I get to start having fun. Until then, I am in a maintenance mode on the existing apps.

Have you had problems with Dell machines? We have several of them where I work, Server and WS level and they are the best machines in the Joint... I would trade our NetFinity Server for the other Business Units Dell server any time.
